Use the virtual touch, multi-locale and multi-language keyboard for on-screen input

Upgrade existing Delphi and C++Builder applications to add support for touch and gesture input with little or no additional coding

The touch development support in RAD Studio 2010 is unique in that it seamlessly supports multiple versions of Windows including Windows 2000, XP, Vista and Windows 7; and works with a variety of inputs including single and multi-touch screens, pen and mouse.

“Touch is now a reality and can deliver far more interactive user experiences. From kiosks and Point of Sale to the iPhone and Windows 7, enabling gestures into every application is becoming a key competitive advantage as consumers and businesses recognize the benefits of natural input,” said Michael Swindell, vice president of products, Embarcadero Technologies. “With the upcoming launch of Delphi and C++Builder 2010, Embarcadero is providing a simple method for enabling touch and gestures in any application that can run on multiple Windows OSes. We are continuing to make Delphi the leading language and platform for interactive user focused applications.”

The gesture enhancements will benefit users of Embarcadero® All-Access™ with the upcoming versions of Delphi and C++Builder. Embarcadero All-Access enables customers to select from one of four All-Access levels providing on-demand access to the entire Embarcadero tool chest.
